Estimator

About you

You’re an Estimator who enjoys working on complex, high value projects where quality and detail genuinely matter. You probably already have experience within high end fit out or main contracting and want to work on projects that people actually recognise across London.

You’ll be confident speaking with clients, comfortable managing multiple tenders and able to balance commercial awareness with a practical understanding of delivery. This role suits someone who likes being involved in the bigger picture rather than sitting in the background pricing endless small jobs.

Your experience

You’ll ideally have experience pricing high end fit out or construction projects within hospitality, luxury residential or commercial sectors.

You should be comfortable working on projects ranging from £15m through to £150m and have experience handling subcontractor packages, tender returns and client meetings.

Experience using Candy software would be useful, although the system is very user friendly and the business is happy to support someone coming from a different estimating platform.

Most of the projects are in Prime Central London, so you’ll need to be comfortable attending site visits and meeting clients throughout the city.

What you will be doing with your experience

You’ll join an established estimating team where you’ll have real involvement from early enquiry stage through to tender submission.

The workload is sensible and well managed. Typically you’ll focus on one or two live projects at a time depending on complexity and value, giving you the chance to properly understand schemes and produce quality tenders rather than rushing through volume pricing.

You’ll attend client tender meetings, carry out site visits and work closely with operational teams on some of London’s most impressive hotel, commercial and high end residential developments.

The role has a strong fit out focus, although the business also delivers full construction packages, giving you exposure across the wider project lifecycle.

About the business

This opportunity is with an established London main contractor known for delivering luxury residential, hotel, commercial and high end fit out projects across the capital. The business has built a strong reputation through repeat work, quality delivery and long standing client relationships.

Their portfolio includes complex refurbishment schemes, premium residential developments, commercial spaces and high specification hotel projects where attention to detail is critical. They deliver everything from shell and core through to full fit out packages and continue to invest heavily in their pre construction team as the business grows.

You’ll be joining a company that values experienced people, gives teams responsibility and works on projects that genuinely stand out on a CV.

The salary guide is £70,000 to £80,000 depending on experience, although there is flexibility for the right person.
